I want to be invisible so that I dont have to: abandon my pj’s, brush my hair down from it’s fright wig appearance, deal with ‘good morning’, ‘how you doin’, ‘where’s that report that was due last week’, ‘wow, your hair is so gray, why don’t you color it’? . I don’t want to speak at all. And if the world won’t go away, then I wish I could.
